Y11 MOCK EXAMS
Welcome to Kingsbury Sixth Form. Our 16-19 provision is designed to support our young people to achieve their future aspirations and develop a life-long love of learning. We understand that the transition from studying GCSEs to A Levels/BTECs can be a challenging, yet rewarding one. Our welcoming and safe Sixth Form environment provides a supportive platform which enables all students to flourish and achieve their goals, no matter the starting point.
We have a strong track record of excellent A Level and Vocational results, which is testament to the expert teaching of our staff and hard work of our students. In our 2024 Ofsted report, it was noted that “Sixth-form students are very well taught. Teachers teach complex ideas with clarity. As a result, sixth-form students achieve very high outcomes.” Over 90% of our students progress to university, with over a third gaining places at Russell Group universities. Every year, students gain places at Oxbridge or Cambridge University, with many others successfully securing highly competitive apprenticeships.
Our young people are supported to become ambitious and intellectually curious learners, who desire to extend their knowledge beyond the classroom. It was noted that our “Sixth-form students enjoy an exceptional educational experience. They are taught by highly knowledgeable teachers who are aspirational for their futures.” We hold high expectations of our students and expect them to demonstrate commitment to their chosen courses and determination to succeed, through effort and perseverance.
Our Key Stage 5 curriculum is well-rounded and offers our students a wide range of extra and super curricular opportunities; “students in the sixth form benefit from work experience related to their interests.” Our Year 12 work experience programme enhances our student’s employability skills and helps them to better understand their next steps; whether employment, apprenticeships or universities. We also have a dedicated pastoral team, along with experienced UCAS and apprenticeship advisors, who work closely with each student to provide bespoke support and career guidance. We regularly invite former students from our ever growing alumni network, along with speakers from a range of industries and sectors to guide, mentor and inspire our young people.
Every young person in our care is listened to, valued and championed. Student voice plays an integral role in our Sixth Form and we encourage all students to show empathy and compassion to others. Our carefully tailored Key Stage 5 Personal Development programme teaches our students the value of positive relationships, good health and wellbeing and how to live in the wider world, as a responsible member of society. We expect our students to be role models to their younger peers and demonstrate integrity through their words and actions.
Thank you for visiting Kingsbury Sixth Form. Please do take the time to read and digest all the excellent opportunities we have on offer. I look forward to sharing our continued successes.
